I also am very familiar with the Commom Core Objectives in the NC Schools and believe that they assist a student in understanding subjects better.

I have 35 years experience in Bell System Management retiring as Operations Manager of Outstate Georgia. Most of this time was used managing, mentoring and teaching others in day to day operations and in class room settings. My strong suits are English, business letter writing, Political Science, Economics and basic Accounting. My major at UNC Chapel Hill was Economics within an overall degree of Business Administration. I have taught personnel sensitivity type management courses to all BellSouth HeadQuarters Employees in Atlanta through the years. I am patient but firm.

Thus, in a tutoring environment, I try to make learning fun and make a game out of speaking and writing proper English. I b

As a childbirth educator I have developed and taught perinatal classes to adults of all levels of education. Teaching CPR and First Aid classes has given me the opportunity to work with lay and health professionals and tailor the teaching style to meet the needs of the individual student. As a parish nurse I have presented numerous health topics to a variety of church and civic groups. In teaching childbirth classes as well as CPR and First Aid classes I have utilized lecture, audio-visuals, written materials, and demonstration/return demonstration methods of teaching. I have found that each individual has his or her own learning style and I like to tailor the class to the individual's style as much as possible. I do believe that some type of return demonstration, whether it be verbal, hands-on, or written, is an effective way to assess the student's mastery of the subject.

I firmly believe that an education is the key to anyone success.I know for a fact that anyone can learn anything. It takes time and patience for most to achieve this. I teach students to look at not just the why and how of things but its application to todays issues. We need people to learn as much as they can in order for them to take their place in this vast world we live in. I teach using a slow deliberate approach to learning. Each step muct be understood before moving to the next step. I make learning fun and memorable.

Due to the fact that I was born and raised in Germany and have since lived in various foreign countries, I have adopted sensitivity when it comes to culture and characters. As a teacher I learned to be very observant before implementing a specific teaching strategy. Not only does every child have a different character, but they are all brought up in different surroundings and family constellations. Through my involvement in the Big Brother's Big Sister's program I learned that private family matters are directly related to acedemic success. As in my case tutoring involved building the child's confidence and self-esteem which ultimately had a positive effect on academics. While working on my Management MBA in Largo, FL I was elected head of the English Learning Center, and held this position for two years. The purpose of the center was to tutor international students in the English langua

I went to Ohio State in Art, then graduated at Ohio U. I taught 14 years in Florida and Ohio , grades 1 through 12; all subjects. I taught using primarily Art and music. My areas of expertise are Reading, Literature, English, and the arts. I have acted in Little Theatre, choreographed, and taught Drama in High School and in College. I had just started tutoring at A to Z Tutoring in Florida but in 2007 I moved back to North Carolina. I substituted many years in North Carolina and taught in High School and some Elementary. I have always thought of myself as a progressive teacher. I always thought children could learn to do anything they were asked to do. I always loved learning and felt it was my obligation to instill the same in all my students, no matter what age. I feel all students are influenced by the use of art and music to learn and that is what I use. I know I can make a diffe

As seen from above, I have valid tutoring experience in both middle grades and HS. I was in the student teaching program at Wake Forest and upon graduation, I was a substitute teacher in the Winston-Salem, Forsyth County School system. I also participated in the Junior Achievement program in the Piedmont NC region for over 5 years. I am currently a tutor with the "No Child Left Behind Program." I am a disciplinarian. I have an excellent ability to gain a students attention, keep it and the results of my students have been well above average. I have a knack to bring into the classroom, outside events (latest ball games, Olympics, etc.) to establish a 'bond' between myself and the student. This allows me to gain their confidence as well as not create a bored atmosphere. I find this very important, especially with the more difficult students.

My previous tutoring experiences have shown me that children/young-adults learn and retain information through different processes. For example, some students learn best by simply listening to a lecture while other students require visual aids and the compartmentalization of subjects/ideas. Consequently, I approach my tutoring sessions by first identifying the needs of the child and by secondly finding creative ways to cater to those needs. Furthermore, in the hopes of bolstering the students’ confidence in their own abilities, I like to encourage discussion, thinking out loud and asking questions. It is my goal to have a student’s full comprehension for the subject at hand by the end of each tutoring session. As a graduate of a highly accredited university, I earned a bachelor’s degree in History and double minored in English and German Studies. Given the reading- and writing-inten
